Did you try cervini's. I know they sell some kind of kit. https://www.cervinis.com/product.aspx?car=1&id=1141#342
In this pic you can kinda see how they have it done. If it dont show the page its from there web site. jay

I dont see the cost or trouble being worth it. Besides "bragging" rights saying that u have "ram-air". 
The only car i see that it could actually do some good on is the Trans-am as it literally rams air into the TB. The camaro and mustangs have to re-route the air...defeating the purpose IMO.
Anywho, good luck!

yeah
thanks guys i saw the one at cirvini but i thought it wasn't direct enough nmcgrawj said so that's why i was trying to build my own by adding an airbox or two but i don't know what to do about maf .Should i buy a cold air kit and just take out their maf and try to cut the pipes so they line up and go directly to intake

+1 Ive seen ramair on stangs before but they were box intakes.Im not so sure your gonna get the results your looking for by doing this.It is a novel idea,but maybe there is a reason noone makes a kit for it.I wont discourage you,if you can do it and make it work, best of luck.

The problem is that the velocity of air going accross the hood is much higher then surrounding air which lowers the static pressure but increases velocity pressure. But I don't think the increase velocity pressure is enough to justify the losses of flow through the ductwork. However, I always figured that would make a really nice cold air system and should at least give some power on that premise alone.
